The PipBoy App! Omg! :love:
No one?

It's great according to my 13 year old.  Hopefully I'll be able to find out eventually
It's amazing, dmartin. Bethesda all day every day.

Is it worth having on my phone while I play? I'm curious as to how integrated it is with the gameplay.

star wars battle front is available today for xbox one through ea access.
you get 10 hours of full game playing time and 10% off the game if you decide to buy it on tuesday for the $5 that ea access costs.
not a bad way to demo the full game before purchase

I'm all in on SWBF.  But unfortunately my only delivery option is by reindeer this year.

I was using it for stimpaks and and weapon changes. I noticed no issues during gameplay. It's pretty neat.

Went in to gamestop today and paid off Battlefront for PS4 in quarters. Guys this game is gonna be great. Can confirm from the beta it is a world of fun and way better than Battlefield IMO. PLUS LIGHTSABERS ARE PRETTY COOL.

It's on newegg, and they send you the card in the mail.  Free shipping, though.

Everyone - I'm a little disappointed with Star Wars Battlefront. The gameplay itself is incredz but, like, there isn't a story to the game. All just separate missions.

I don't have the PS Network online pass thingy so the game is kinda pointless. Am I stupid?  :frown:

You can most likely adjust the sensitivity.
